Mrs. Logan's Part in Forming Her Hus
bands Career.

To the great public which thinks and
talks of the dead soldier, the one phase of
his life and his character that comes
especially home to them is his relation To
Mrs Logan. The dashng general, the
great volunteer, is second in the mind Of
women and Of many men when he is
thought of a. the husband. If all man
Kind loves a lover" as ii is generally de
clared to do, it honors with a warm admir-
alton such tender affection and loyalty as
Logan felt for his wife Among the many
stories that are told over and over these
days when the general comes up, and he in
evitably does in conversation, is one that il
lustratcs this most aptly. 1t was in the 1854
campaign, when Logan was travelling and
talking his best and hardest He was ad-
dressing an Ohio audience. He had arranged
to meet his wife the following day at his
next stopping place, and was not expecting
her at all that night But she happened TO
get in town and going straight to the
meeting, slipped in unobservcd and sat
down on the rear part of the stage just as
her husband was introduced.
He was eloquent that night and a. fiery
as eloquent. Bitter were his attacks on
the opposition, in whirlwind of passion
ate words, hammering in his words with
vehement, violent gestures. He was fair
ly in the midst of one of these periods
with clenched fist uplifted, ready to strike
when, half turning, he caught sight Of his
wife, looking on, proud and happy The
stern lines of the face relaxed in winning
smile the emphasizing action of the arm
was transformed into graceful sweep Of
the hand 1t was touching if a little
amusing, and the audience cheered heart
